Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 526 - 237: Initiating the Wuxiang Tribulation Heart Sutra, Five-Colored Divine Light, Slaying the Void Beast, the Approaching Tournament Examination_2
However, Xu Guang was different; every move he made exuded a sense of returning to simplicity.
This was enough to illustrate Xu Guang’s insight into this martial technique and his high level of cultivation in that imitated sword technique.
"Your cultivation progress is impressive."
She praised aloud.
Then she added, "You’ve grasped some key points, but it’s not enough. The Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra, while mimicking ordinary martial techniques as spiritual martial arts, is not about pure imitation. When executing it, you need to imbue it with your own intent, as the original intent of the martial technique doesn’t suit the intent of Wuxiang Jie.
The so-called formlessness is just that. This martial technique is difficult because to get started, you must carve out your own path on a martial art that you’ve already mastered; whether it’s right or wrong depends on you."
Xu Guang fell into deep thought.
He subtly gained some insights.
Lin Ao Xue thought for a moment, took out a booklet, as if she had prepared it long ago, "These are the martial techniques I can imitate; see if you recognize any. I’ll perform them for you with the Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra."
Half a day later.
Xu Guang reaped abundant rewards.
Lin Ao Xue, worthy of being a First Nirvana Realm expert, even though she stated that her Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra is only at the First Grade level for now, was sufficient to guide Xu Guang.
Looking at the page full of notes, Xu Guang felt that today’s achievements were worth the effort.
The guidance from Lin Ao Xue today saved him three months of arduous practice. Given his understanding of the Twenty-four Swords, and using it as a starting point, the Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra should soon become approachable. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Although this martial technique is not only difficult to enter but also exceedingly hard to cultivate.
However, for Xu Guang, getting started is the most challenging; once he gets going, the subsequent cultivation won’t require such intense effort.
...
Returning home.
Xu Guang quickly entered a state of seclusion.
General Wei had just broken through to the Third Grade, at the speediest time for growth; apart from cultivating the Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra, Xu Guang devoted most of his energy to assisting General Wei’s advancement.
Time flew by swiftly in focused cultivation, Xu Guang completely immersed in the rapid growth of his strength, seeming to lose all interest in the outside world.
Who knows how much time had passed.
Xu Guang opened his eyes, looking at the new content emerging on the panel.
[Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra lv0 (142/10000000): All Tribulations Without Form, All Paths Without Shape, Divine Tribulation Extinguished, Fate Pattern Buried]
At that moment, countless realizations surged in Xu Guang’s mind, presenting him with a completely different understanding of various martial arts he had cultivated before.
His understanding of this cultivation technique soared from an original vague half-knowledge to a new height; many skills that were previously tried multiple times without successful execution now came effortlessly, Wuxiang Jie... Tribulations Without Form, flowing freely and naturally.
"So that’s how it is..."
Xu Guang murmured to himself, gaining insight.
Without hesitation, he directly chose to upgrade the cultivation technique; there were many benefits to practicing the Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra, and this martial technique could be cultivated to the First Nirvana Realm, which means a vast amount of experience in martial techniques deduction could be saved.
Without much thought, Xu Guang adapted to the upgraded Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra.
Who knows how long it had been.
Knocking sounded from outside.
"Brother Guang, Xiaozhu is looking for you."
Xu Guang looked at the sky outside, witnessing the moon setting and the sun rising, without feeling any passage of time at all.
Stepping out of the room, Bai Xiaozhu was already waiting, a bit agitated.
"Boss, great news!"
Xu Guang was somewhat puzzled, "What’s up?"
Bai Xiaozhu pulled Xu Guang to the side, lowering her voice, "A few days ago, Xiaocai and I were cultivating and encountered a void beast. Are you interested?"
"Xiaocai can still find void beasts in the Void Realm?"
"Of course!" Bai Xiaozhu said proudly, "Xiaocai has the bloodline of the Chaos Seven-colored Bird, with powerful tracking skills."
Xu Guang was aware of this; Xiaocai’s tracking skills leveraged its immense fortune, using a method similar to causality, mysterious and unfathomable, difficult to defend against.
"What type of void beast is it?"
Xu Guang showed interest and asked.
The Wuxiang Jie Heart Sutra completed, and this Divine Thought Martial Dao’s power in the Void Realm should be even more potent.
"It looks like a five-colored fish; I suspect the void core has the bloodline of the peacock clan, considering you are simultaneously cultivating the Five Elements, it should be useful to you."
Xu Guang’s mind stirred.
"Thank you."
Bai Xiaozhu revealed a happy smile.
Being able to hug a big thigh, that was quite good.
She had heard that among their group, someone could become a Saint.
From the looks of it, Xu Guang’s chances should be significant. Having a Saint as a backer...
Bai Xiaozhu couldn’t help but show a silly smile.
Who would have thought that during the assessment, the beast-taming martial artist she found casually would turn out to be such a powerful ally.
...
The place where Bai Xiaozhu discovered the void beast was unexpectedly outside the city.
This was Xu Guang’s first venture outside Beiji City since arriving.
The scenery outside the city was beautiful. According to Bai Xiaozhu, the earth veins here had been meticulously organized, with rare occurrences of natural disasters.
The void beast was also cautious, never causing a catastrophe in the world, otherwise, it would’ve been discovered by the city’s inhabitants long ago.
It was just that Xiaocai’s ability was exceedingly peculiar,
Soon, the two humans and two beasts arrived at a gorge, where the stream trickled, and deer pranced.
"This is approximately the spot, boss. From here, we enter the Void Realm, and Xiaocai should be able to lead us to it."
Xu Guang was somewhat curious, "This place is over four hundred miles from the Northern Emperor Court. How did you discover it? Did you go out of the city these past few days?"
Bai Xiaozhu reached up to touch her head and chuckled, "A few days ago, I just finished merging divine souls with Xiaocai; my divine techniques could enhance Xiaocai’s perception, discovering the abnormality here, and it took me a lot of effort to confirm this spot."
